In order to provide basic information for the utilization and development of famous classical formulas containing Bletillae Rhizoma， this article systematically analyzes the historical evolution of the name， origin， harvesting and processing of Bletillae Rhizoma by reviewing the ancient materia medica， prescription books， medical books and modern literature. The research results showed that Baiji（白及） was the main name， some scholars took Baiji（白芨） as its main name， and there were many other names such as Baiji（白给）， Baigen（白根）， Baiji（白苙）. The mainstream source of Bletillae Rhizoma was the tubers of Bletilla striata， and drying， large， white， solid， root-free and skin removed completely were the good quality standards. With the promotion of wild to cultivated medicinal materials， there were certain differences between their traits， and the quality evaluation indexes should be adjusted accordingly. The origin of records in the past dynasties was widely distributed， with Guizhou and Sichuan having high production and good quality in modern times. The harvesting period is mostly in spring and autumn， and harvested in autumn was better. The processing and processing technology is relatively simple， and it was used fresh or powdered in past dynasties， while it is mainly sliced for raw use in modern times. Based on the results， it is suggested that the tubers of Bletilla striata of Orchidaceae should be used in the famous classical formulas， and it should be uniformly written as Baiji（白及）. And if the original formula indicates the requirement of processing， it should be operated according to the requirement， if the requirement of processing is not indicated， it can be used in raw form as medicine.

Objective: To investigate the sexual behaviors and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) knowledge acquisition of male students with human immunodeficiency virus(HIV)/AIDS before diagnosis, so as to provide reference for formulating policies and measures for AIDS prevention and control among young students. Methods: Qualitative interviews were conducted among 25 newly reported HIV/AIDS male students recruited from January 2021 to December 2023 in the district of Chengdu. The contents of the interviews included highrisk behaviors related to HIV infection, access to knowledge and psychological status after infection. Results: All interviewees had sex with men, and the mean age of first homosexual behavior was (17.48±1.64) years old. The time from first sexual behavior to confirmation ranged 0-8 years, with an average of (2.72±1.41) years. The proportion of condom use among interviewees was low, only 2 students reported using every time, and 12 students had never been tested for HIV infection before diagnosis. All interviewees were aware of knowledge about AIDS, but their awareness of risk was low. Among them, 16 thought that they would not be infected, 8 were aware of risks but held a luck mindset, and one did not know the role of such knowledge. Schools and Internet were the main ways to obtain knowledge. Among them, 3 got knowledge through Weibo, Douyin, Zhihu, etc., 9 got knowledge through school lectures, theme class meetings, etc., and 13 got knowledge through schools and the Internet. None of the interviewees had acquired AIDS related knowledge from family education. After knowing being infected, 21 students reported depression, frustration, pessimism, despair and other negative emotions(7 students expressed anxiety and depression, 9 students had fear and terror, 5 students felt regret) and only 4 students had a relatively calm attitude. Conclusions The primary reasons for the infection of young students are early age of first sexual behavior, multiple sexual partners, popularity of online dating and separation of AIDS knowledge and practice among HIV/AIDS male students. Targeted prevention and control measures should be developed to suppress AIDS transmission among young students.

Objective:To investigate the perioperative impact of closure of mesenteric fissure in laparoscopic right hemicolectomy.Methods:The prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted. The clinical data of 320 patients who underwent laparoscopic right hemicolectomy in 11 medical centers, including The First Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University et al, from November 2022 to August 2023 were selected. Based on block randomization, patients were alloca-ted into the mesenteric fissure non-closure group and the mesenteric fissure closure group. Observa-tion indicators: (1) grouping of the enrolled patients; (2) intraoperative conditions; (3) postopera-tive conditions. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3) and com-parison between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were represen-ted as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test or Fisher's exact probability. Comparison of ordinal data was conducted using the rank sum test. Comparison of visual analog scores was analyzed using generalized estimating equations. Results:(1) Grouping of the enrolled patients. A total of 320 patients with colon cancer were screened for eligibility, including 156 males and 164 females, aged 68(59,73)years. All the 320 patients were allocated into the mesenteric fissure non-closure group with 164 cases and the mesenteric fissure closure group with 156 cases. There was no significant difference in the age, body mass index, American Society of Anesthesiologist score, maximum tumor diameter, anastomosis location, anastomosis method, surgical approach, range of lymph node dissection, tumor staging between the two groups ( P>0.05) and there was a significant difference in the sex between them ( P<0.05). (2) Intraoperative conditions. There was no significant difference between the mesenteric fissure closure group and the mesenteric fissure non-closure group in the volume of intraoperative blood loss, operation time, conversion to laparotomy, intraoperative complication ( P>0.05). Three patients in the mesenteric fissure non-closure group were converted to laparotomy. One patient in the mesenteric fissure closure group was converted to laparotomy, and 2 cases with intraoperative complication were mesenteric hematoma. (3) Postoperative conditions. There was no significant difference between the mesenteric fissure non-closure group and the mesenteric fissure closure group in the overall postoperative complications ( χ2=0.28, P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the occurrence of postoperative intestinal obstruction, abdominal distension, ascites, pleural effusion, gastric paralysis, anastomotic bleeding, anastomotic leakage, or surgical wound infection between the two groups ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference between the two groups in the reoperation, postoperative gastric tube replacement. There was no significant differ-ence in time to postoperative first flatus, time to postoperative initial liquid food intake, time to post-operative resumption of bowel movements, duration of postoperative hospital stay, total hospital expenses between the two groups ( Z=-0.01, 0.43, 1.04, -0.54, -0.36, P>0.05). One patient in the mesenteric fissure non-closure group received reoperation. No perioperative internal hernia or death occurred in either group. The visual analog score decreased with time in both groups. There was no significant difference in the visual analog score between the mesenteric fissure closure group and the mesenteric fissure non-closure group [ β=-0.20(-0.53,0.13), P>0.05]. Conclusion:Compared with closure of mesenteric fissure, non-closure of mesenteric fissure during laparoscopic right hemi-colectomy dose not increase perioperative complications or postoperative management risk.

Objective To analyze the differential expressed genes(DEGs)in the lung tissues of rat model of high altitude pulmonary edema(HAPE)by using microarray analysis in order to provide new clues for molecular mechanism of HAPE.Methods Healthy male SD rats(8 weeks old,weighing 200±20 g)were randomized into normoxia control(NC)group,lipopolysaccharide(LPS)group,hypoxia group and hypoxia+low-dose LPS(HL)group.The rats of the LPS group and HL group were injected with 0.1 mL 0.05％LPS per 100 g body weight,and those of the NC group and the hypoxia group were administered with an equivalent volume of normal saline.The rats of the hypoxia group and the HL group were housed in a hypobaric chamber simulating an altitude of 5 000 m,and those of the NC group and the LPS group were raised simultaneously outside of the chamber.The wet/dry mass ratio(WDR)of lung tissue and total protein content in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF)were measured,and the histopathological changes of lung tissue was observed using HE staining.The total RNA was extracted from the lung tissues,and the mRNA expression profile was obtained with Affymetrix microarray followed by Gene Ontology(GO)analysis and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes(KEGG)pathway analysis with Metascape(http://metascape.org).Results The rats of the HL group showed significant congestion,edema,and widened alveolar septa.Compared with the NC group,the HL group had significantly increased lung WDR(P＜0.01)and total protein content in BALF(P＜0.05).Gene expression analysis revealed that there were 79 genes up-regulated and 59 genes down-regulated in the hypoxia group,473 genes up-regulated and 695 genes down-regulated in the LPS group,and especially,669 genes up-regulated and 1 253 genes down-regulated in the HL group.GO and KEGG pathway analyses revealed that the upregulated genes in the HL group were mainly enriched in biological processes,such as cytokine mediated signaling pathways,response to IL-1,regulation of inflammatory response,as well as signaling pathways,including cytokine-cytokine receptor interactions,TNF,NF-κB,IL-17,complement and coagulation cascades,etc.The down-regulated genes were mainly enriched in biological processes,such as extracellular matrix organization,regulation of endothelial cell migration,cell substrate adhesion,as well as signaling pathways,such as focal adhesion,Wnt,cGMP-PKG,PI3K-Akt,Rap1,etc.The mRNA expression of NF-κB,TNF-α,IL-1βand IL-6 was significantly up-regulated in the lung tissue of the HL group(P＜0.01).Conclusion Hypoxia+low-dose LPS is an effective procedure to establish a reliable model for HAPE in rats.Hypoxia can significantly aggravate LPS-induced inflammation and immune response,enhance the expression of inflammatory mediators,and thus promote the pathogenesis of HAPE.

Objective:To explore the development and interaction between chronotype and depressive symp-toms among middle school students in Chongqing.Methods:A total of 1208 middle school students(613 in grade 7,595 in grade 10)were surveyed for three follow-ups at 6-month intervals.Periods T1-T3 represented baseline,6 months later,and 12 months later,respectively.Chronotype and depressive symptoms were measured by the Morn-ing and Evening Questionnaire-5(MEQ-5)and the Patient Health Questionnaire-9(PHQ-9).Analyses were per-formed using SPSS 26.0 and Mplus 8.3.Results:The MEQ-5 scores were lower in T1 than in T3,and the scores were lower in T2 than in T1 and T3(F=20.08,P＜0.001),suggesting a fluctuating trend of chronotype shifting to the Evening-type first after baseline and then to the Morning-type.The PHQ-9 scores exhibited a significant differ-ence among the three-time measurements(x2/df=9.77/2,P＜0.01).But pairwise comparisons did not yield any statistically significant findings(P＞0.05).The cross-lagged panel model showed that pathways of Ti MEQ-5 scores negatively predicted Ti+1 PHQ-9 scores(βTi-Ti+1=-0.12/-0.09,P＜0.05)and TiPHQ-9 scores nega-tively predicted Ti+1 MEQ-5 scores(βTi-Ti+1=-0.07/-0.11,P＜0.05).Conclusion:Chronotype and depressive symptoms show some changes in adolescents.The more inclined adolescents are to the Evening-type,the higher the likelihood of depressive symptoms occurring later.The more severe the depressive symptoms,the greater the likeli-hood of a subsequent shift to the Evening-type.

OBJECTIVE: To review the research progress in the construction strategy and application of bone/cartilage immunomodulating hydrogels. METHODS: The literature related to bone/cartilage immunomodulating hydrogels at home and abroad in recent years was reviewed and summarized from the immune response mechanism of different immune cells, the construction strategy of immunomodulating hydrogels, and their practical applications. RESULTS: According to the immune response mechanism of different immune cells, the biological materials with immunoregulatory effect is designed, which can regulate the immune response of the body and thus promote the regeneration of bone/cartilage tissue. Immunomodulating hydrogels have good biocompatibility, adjustability, and multifunctionality. By regulating the physical and chemical properties of hydrogel and loading factors or cells, the immune system of the body can be purposively regulated, thus forming an immune microenvironment conducive to osteochondral regeneration. CONCLUSION Immunomodulating hydrogels can promote osteochondral repair by affecting the immunomodulation process of host organs or cells. It has shown a wide application prospect in the repair of osteochondral defects. However, more data support from basic and clinical experiments is needed for this material to further advance its clinical translation process.

Objective:To assess the safety and efficiency of left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) combined delayed anticoagulant therapy in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients combined with cardiogenic stroke during anticoagulant therapy.Methods:Using prospective research methods, 35 AF patients combined with cardiogenic stroke during anticoagulant therapy from September 2020 to June 2022 in Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University were selected. All patients were treated with LAAC and delayed anticoagulant therapy. The endpoints were the safety and efficacy of LAAC combined with delayed anticoagulant therapy. The primary endpoint of efficacy was the composite endpoint of postoperative death, myocardial infarction, hemorrhagic stroke and systemic embolism. The safety endpoint was major bleeding as defined by the International Society for Thrombosis and Hemostasis and clinically relevant non-major bleeding.Results:Among 35 patients, 21 were males and 14 were females; the age was (68.5 ± 9.3) years old; the CHA 2DS 2-VASc score was 5 (4, 6) scores; the time to the last stroke was 95 (42, 98) d; the National Institutes of Health stroke scale score at the time of stroke was 3 (1, 6) scores. All patients successfully completed LAAC without perioperative instrument-surface thrombosis, death, new stroke or bleeding events. Thirty-two patients continued oral anticoagulant therapy 45 d after LAAC. The patients were followed up for (12.6 ± 4.3) months, 1 patient experienced recurrent ischemic stroke, 2 patients endured mucosal bleeding, there were no adverse events such as all-cause death, cardiovascular death, systemic embolism and hemorrhagic stroke. Conclusions:The LAAC combined delayed anticoagulant therapy is efficient and safe in patients with AF. For AF patients combined with cardiogenic stroke during anticoagulant therapy, LAAC combined with delayed anticoagulation therapy may be considered to further prevent ischemic stroke events.

Objective:To investigate the effectiveness of nasal endoscopic anterior lacrimal recess approach combined with temporary fenestration of the nasal septum in resecting recurrent nasal inverted papilloma. Methods:Patients with recurrent nasal inverted papilloma who underwent reoperation in our hospital during the past 2 years were included . The nasal septum may hinder full access to and effective treatment of the lesions at the anterior and medial wall of the maxillary sinus by endoscope, aspirator and surgical instrument in the narrow aperture of the prelacrimal recess, although these lesions could be observed by 70° nasal endoscope. Results:The nasal septum is temporarily opened on the basis of the prelacrimal recess approach, and the nasal endoscope and instrument was introduced through trans-septal window, so as to provide a better view of the operative field and the angular range of the instrument's movement. Conclusion:The recurrent nasal inverted papilloma could be successfully managed by re-endoscopic anterior lacrimal recess approach combined with temporary fenestration of the nasal septum, and no recurrence was observed during the 2-year follow-up. This surgical approach is recommended for the inverted papilla which originates from the anterior medial wall of the maxillary sinus, as the tumor can be removed completely using this surgical approach.

Objective: To analyse the influencing factors of myopia correction among primary and secondary school students with myopia and to compare the quality of visionrelated survival of students with different correction conditions. Methods: A total of 3 649 students from eight primary and secondary schools in a district of Chongqing were selected for myopia screening and vision related survival quality questionnaires using a stratified cluster random sampling method. Results: Univariate analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences in the rate of wearing eyeglasses among myopic students with different gender, school, educational stage, academic stress, and parenting style ( χ 2=10.98, 31.63, 31.86, 11.28, 9.59, all P <0.05). The fully vision correction rate among students wearing eyeglasses differed in educational stage, academic stress and parenting style ( χ 2= 11.77, 9.92, 8.69, all P <0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that gender, school and educational stage were all influencing factors of the rate of wearing eyeglasses (all P <0.01). Myopic students total scores on the Quality of Survival Scale were significantly higher than those of non myopic students ( t =20.07, P <0.01). There were significant differences in the scores of physical, emotional, visual and physical functioning and the total score of quality of survival scores among the three groups of myopic students without wearing eyeglasses, students with undercorrection and students with full vision correction ( F=49.93, 49.38, 28.14, 67.31, P <0.01). Conclusion Myopic students have low rates of wearing eyeglasses and fully vision correction. The rate of wearing glasses is different in urban and rural areas, gender and educational stage. The quality of life among myopic students is decreased by wearing eyeglasses, and the quality of life of undercorrected students is lower than that of fully corrected students. We should pay attention to the correction of myopia and improve the quality of life among myopic students.

Objective:To investigate the effect of flap combined with 3D printed microporous titanium(tantalum)prosthesis in the treatment of lower extremity soft tissue defect with large bone defect.Methods:From January 2019 to December 2020, 2 patients with large soft tissue defects on dorsal foot together with large metatarsal bone defect and 4 patients with soft tissue defects of calf with large tibial bone defect were treated. The areas of soft tissue defect were 5.0 cm×8.0 cm-15.0 cm×10.0 cm. The length of the bone defect were 3.8 cm to 7.0 cm, 5.75 cm in average. In the first stage, metatarsal bone defect or tibial bone defect was filled with vancomycin blended bone cement, meanwhile, soft tissue defect was repaired with anterolateral femoral flap(ALTF) with vascular anastomosis in 2 cases of feet, and local fascia flap was trans-positioned in 4 cases of lower extremity defects. The sizes of repairing flap were 6.0 cm×8.5 cm-16.0 cm×11.0 cm. Two to 7 months after the initial surgery, the customer designed microporous titanium prostheses were used(5 cases with microporous titanium and 1 with microporous tantalum) to repair the bone defects. The wound healing, the integration of metatarsal and tibial fractures with 3D printed microporous titanium(tantalum) prostheses, and the walking condition were observed after surgery. The follow-up lasted from 6 to 25 months, with an average of 12.7 months.Results:The wound healing in 5 patients was good. The patients stood on the foot in 2 months after surgery, started to walk with the assistance of crutch in 3 months after surgery, and took walk without assistance in 5-6 months after surgery. Good osseous integration were achieved. One diabetic patient had infection of foot wound 3 months after surgery. After removal of microporous titanium prosthesis and replacement of vancomycin blended interstitial substance of bone cement, the wound healed and the patient resumed walking.Conclusion:It is an effective method to encourage the patients to take early ambulation after the surgery for lower extremity soft tissue defect with large bone defect that was repaired by a flap and 3D printed microporous titanium(tantalum)prosthesis. Further observations are required to investigate the long-term efficacy, and the reduction of prosthesis infection rate requires further exploration.
